$225.00
Description
Abstract: Communication is an important part of just about every job. But say an employee’s strong speaking accent prompts the employer in question not to renew her contract. Is this tantamount to disparate treatment based on national origin under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964? This article looks at a recent case in which this very question was considered. Fong v. School Board of Palm Beach County, No. 13-10393, Nov. 4, 2014 (11th Cir.)
